I believe keyboard and mouse needs the "evdev" module to be loaded
before something; certainly before starting X.

Yeah, you would do "lsmod | grep -w evdev" only, and apparently it's
loaded, so probably not the issue. You can check inside initrd image
that "evdev" is mentioned in the "conf/modules" file to ensure/verify
that it happens early enough.
Note that "vdev" itself is not a module, but is present in a number of
pre-pivot init scripts, the vdevd daemon, and its configuration files.
The vdevd daemon is run twice: once pre-pivot, then that one is killed
and another is started via the /etc/init.d/vdev script.

Perhaps /var/log/Xorg.0.log tells something. And I have this vague
memory of being in that same situation, but I can't remember the resolution.
Ralph.
